Highgate is a wonderful, friendly members’ club opened in 1904. Our 18-holes stretch to 6,000 yards and we are the nearest 18-hole course to central London. Despite being over 100 years old, the existence of the course still raises eyebrows – even amongst those who have lived in the capital for many years and in that respect, Highgate really is London’s best kept golfing secret.
A hilly, tree-lined parkland course, Highgate has just one par 5 and four extremely demanding par 4s, meaning neither the par or SSS of 69 are a pushover. The amateur course record stands at only 3 under par, while the professional record stood at a similar score until 2003, when Matt Deal of Hendon, aided by a hole in one at the 17th, reduced it to 63.
